Once upon a torrid Nightmare,
where screams bellow a mute despair
The fondest parts of me parish,
'neath a revolting guise I'll never wear

Darkness excreting a fetid anesthetic,
noxious though it's pull defines kinetic
My every move forced, feels magnetic,
it's not real, behind my eyes, synthetic

Yet I gasp for a breath I can't catch,
guts coiled, on my knees I wretch
Skin drenched in my own sweat,
a need to run from all I can't forget

My legs forbade my only choice,
as I frantically search for my own voice
Reaching for you only to find a decoy,
and I still can't make a single noise

What tragedy leaves me so defiled,
in this odious void of caliginous bile
Bitterly unforgiving I'm torn, hostile,
fragile and confused as a small child

Running out of time I pray it's fake,
maybe that's the critical mistake
Everything I am becomes opaque..
Shake me harder baby, make me wake!

That's a beautiful poem. Amazing. The rhyming, the imagery, just EVERYTHING was astounding.

Great job! Clap
